Herts residents invited to join tree planting events at Panshanger Park

Local residents are being encouraged to get digging at a series of tree planting days, as part of Panshanger Park’s contribution to the Queen’s Green Canopy initiative.

Designed to create a living legacy in Her Majesty’s name, a new public woodland is set to be created at the Hertford-based park through the project and will include a total of 17,000 trees. The land set aside for the project, will help to restore woodland areas and parkland in the northern part of the park, which is currently used for arable farming.
